This release features all ten episodes from the sixth season of the smash hit HBO fantasy drama Game of Thrones. After the events of season five, new questions arise about the death of Jon Snow (Kit Harrington) as Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead Wright) continues his training with Three-Eyed Raven (Max von Sydow), and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) continues her quest to rule the Seven Kingdoms. Included in this set are bonus content and behind the scenes footage.
The anticipation for this season was huuuge! I could not wait for this season to come out to see what the writers had in store for some of my favorite characters, Hordo. It still is frustrating to lose one of my faves but I know they may be back. Once again, you cannot watch these episodes one at a time over several weeks or months, it is NOW.
If I did not know some of the background I would like this movie as an entertaining example of current day life in the middle east. BUT knowing that this will someday be a history lesson for my grandkids, and knowing that we should learn quickly from our mistakes to prevent these kinds of tragedies, makes it frustrating and sad.
Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey and Emilia Clarke star in the fifth season of the HBO fantasy drama series Game of Thrones, a show based on the A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels by George R.R. Martin and adapted for television by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. All ten episodes of Season Five are featured in this collection, as Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) joins the mysterious House of Black and White to become an assassin, Daenerys (Clarke) and Tyrion (Dinklage) join forces, Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) continues her quest for power at the expense of Cersei (Headey), and the villainous Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) continues to leave a trail of terror.
You get drawn in and cannot get away from binge watching this series. I find myself rooting for certain characters to win and some to lose and cannot wait for the next episodes to confirm or deny my assumptions on the state of each character that I have bonded with. Frustrating is when they kill off one of my favorites.
The cast did a great job of showing us how the stress of motherhood culminates in the actions of these typical young women in today's society. When I was younger this was how I wanted young mothers to act, now not so much.
Amazing that I grew up with Star Trek and am just as attached to the new cast as the old. I may have difficulty remembering the actual actors names but find I forget the originals as well ;( The attention and commitment to the details of the original while updating the feel is amazing and I will continue to follow the Starship Enterprise wherever it goes.
Another good to very good adaptation of comic book heroes. More from my kids time than mine but enjoyable to watch and I love the way they almost appear real. Fun for any age group.
Willis seems to be popping out movies (yes, could be 'oo') all over the place and lately most have been minor cameos that seem to be using his name only for the marketing piece. This one is much better than most of those but not on par with the Die Hard series. Action is good and plot seems present day appropriate.
I cannot keep away from any of the X-men movies, they are always awesome. The visuals are spot on most of the time and the stories never seem to drift far from the origins. Keep up the good work.
I keep watching anything CIA related and find most are exceptional but all are good. This seemed to have many expected cliches and while the acting was very good I did not get into the relationship I wanted in order to immerse myself fully.
I guess the hype of this movie was too great for me to embrace the pace to bring the movie to a point of expectation. Adams, Renner and Whitaker did their normal superb job of bringing the story to light, but I think I was expecting a faster pace and maybe more action in the interaction between human and aliens.
